Passage One
Questions 17 to 19 are based on the passage you have just heard.
听力原文：
Passage One I first met Joe Gans when we were both nine years old, which is probably the
only reason he’s one of my best friends. If I had first met Joe as a freshman in high
school, we wouldn’t even have had the chance to get to know each other. Joe is a day
student, but I am a boarding student. We haven’t been in the same classes, sports, or
extracurricular activities.
Nonetheless, I spend nearly every weekend at his house and we talk on the phone every
night. This is not to say that we would not have been compatible if we had first met in our
freshman year. Rather, we would not have been likely to spend enough time getting to know
each other due to the lack of immediately visible mutual interests. In fact, to be honest,
I struggle even now to think of things we have in common. But maybe that’s what makes us
enjoy each other’s company so much. When I look at my friendship with Joe, I wonder how
many people I’ve known whom I never disliked, but simply didn’t take the time to get to
know. Thanks to Joe, I have realized how little basis there is for the social divisions
that exist in every community. Since this realization, I have begun to make an even more
determined effort to find friends in unexpected people and places.
